SerDes Circuit Design Engineer

What you'll do

• Design and evaluate high-performance SerDes PHY circuit topologies including Rx, CDR, Tx, and bias generators.
• Implement transistor-level designs and behavioral modeling for mixed-signal circuits with optimized power, performance, and area.
• Develop advanced analog components such as LDO regulators, amplifiers, comparators, and high-speed clock distribution networks.
• Create block-level specifications and execute mask designs to implement layout views of integrated circuits.
• Implement digitally assisted analog design techniques including background calibrations and LMS-based adaptive loops.
• Design equalization circuits like CTLE and DFE for 64+ Gbps NRZ and PAM applications.
• Perform circuit modeling and performance evaluation using tools such as SystemVerilog, Matlab, or Python.
• Conduct lab testing, debugging, and data analysis for high-speed serial I/O components.

What we're looking for

• Minimum requirement of a bachelor's degree.
• Deep understanding of analog mixed-signal design with experience in high-speed serial links (preferred).
• Experience designing analog mixed-signal circuit blocks such as Bandgap, LDOs, amplifiers, and oscillators (preferred).
• Understanding of advanced concepts like mismatch mitigation, linearity, stability, and low-power techniques (preferred).
• Knowledge of digitally assisted analog design, including background calibrations and LMS based adaptive loops (preferred).
• Experience with high-speed digital circuits and knowledge of Tx/Rx equalization techniques for 64+ Gbps applications (preferred).
• Experience in AMS circuit modeling using SystemVerilog, Matlab, Python, or VerilogAMS (preferred).
• Hands-on experience in advanced CMOS technologies, FinFET design, and lab testing of high-speed serial I/O (preferred).
